Electromagnetic Induction Experiments 1. Obtain the following apparatus: [F22A] 2 x C-cores; clip; 4 x crocodile clips; 2 x 1 metre lengths of green wire; 1 x multimeter set on 200mV dc (see below); 1 x lab power supply set on 3V (see diagram); switch; bar magnet; 2.5V light bulb in holder; variable resistor; SHARED powerful magnet; pair of magnadur magnets with iron yoke (as used for the electric motor); 5 x ordinary wires. 2. Using the magnadur magnets, yoke, meter and one of your lengths of green wire set up the apparatus as shown below. 3. Move the green wire up and then down in between the magnadur magnets. Repeat a few times, at different speeds. You should see some tiny readings on the voltmeter. Repeat with the shared powerful magnet. 4. Make the green wire into a coil of about 5 turns (see opposite) and repeat the above. 5. In your class workbook book write the heading “Electromagnetic Induction Experiments”. Then write in your answers to the following questions: (You should write out the questions as well). Q1. How did the voltmeter reading vary with the speed of wire movement? Q2. How were the voltmeter readings different when you moved the wire or coil upwards rather than downwards? Q3. What was the voltmeter reading when the coil or wire was stationary, anywhere? Q4. What was the effect of using the powerful shared magnet? 6. Now wrap your wire around one of the C-cores and set up the apparatus as shown below. Move the BAR MAGNET (i.e. NOT THE MAGNADUR!!) on and off the C-core a few times. Notice also what happens when you turn the magnet around (i.e. N pole on the right ) N S green wire coil being moved up and down bar magnet being moved on and off the -core C DC AC 200m COM V voltmeter reading in millivolts 7. Now write in your notebook the answers to the following questions. Q5. How were the voltmeter readings different when you moved the magnet towards the C-core compared with when you moved it away? Q6. What happened when you turned the magnet around? Q7. What happened when the magnet was stationary, anywhere? KT 14 May 2017 v. 2.1 8. Now use the lab power supply, switch and the other wire, the other C-core and the C-core clip to set up the circuit shown below. Q8. What happens, if anything, when: (a) the switch is open; (b) when the switch is being closed; (c) when the switch is kept closed & (d) when the switch is being opened. 9. Now replace the switch with a variable resistor wired up as shown below. Q9. What happens, if anything, when: (a) you move the variable resistor slider quickly one way; (b) then the other way; (c) when you leave the slider stationary in any position? 10. Finally replace the voltmeter with the light bulb and connect the other green wire to the a.c. output of the power supply as shown in the diagram opposite. Q10. What happens 11. Q11. Explain your answers to questions 1 to 10 using what you know about electromagnetic induction. KT 14 May 2017 v. 2.1
